0001 fixes up some more minor spacing issues missed in my last round of patches on 2014-08-09.
0002 fixes another typo in recent additions to NEWS, and adds a space after the redirection operator in the new CONTRIBUTING file for added clarity.
I think the descriptions for 0001 and 0002 above are swapped. I would prefer that neatly aligned comments at the ends of lines, like these: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] Zone Africa/Asmara 2:35:32 - LMT 1870 2:35:32 - AMT 1890 # Asmara Mean Time 2:35:20 - ADMT 1936 May 5 # Adis Dera MT remain as they are, and not be changed to unaligned forms like these, which I find harder to read: # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] Zone Africa/Asmara 2:35:32 - LMT 1870 2:35:32 - AMT 1890 # Asmara Mean Time 2:35:20 - ADMT 1936 May 5 # Adis Dera MT (I expanded tabs in the pasted code above)
0004 standardizes Link lines to use single tabs.
Why? It's much easier to read if the tabs are used to to make the columns line up nicely (in a display that's configured for one tab every 8 columns, in the traditional way), and that sometimes needs more than one tab. --apb (Alan Barrett)
